    Corporates Gaming / U.S.A. 2014 Outlook: U.S. Gaming Deleveraging Potential Outlook Report High Leverage Is So 2013: After a busy 2013, with a first-ever gaming/REIT spin-off and three Rating Outlook major debt-funded M&A transactions, gaming companies are positioned with solid FCF profiles, STABLE limited development prospects and stringent credit agreement provisions. Fitch Ratings believes this is a formula for meaningful deleveraging across the industry. Notable exceptions (2013: STABLE) could be the U.S.-based Macau operators, which will be ramping up developments on Cotai and currently maintain low leverage levels in Macau. A handful of lightly leveraged companies may also look to increase shareholder-friendly activity. Finally, a Gaming REIT: Fitch believes the entrance of REITs into the gaming sector will potentially drive up trading EV/EBITDA multiples, provide new sources of capital (e.g. sale and leaseback), create better transparency on the value of physical casino assets and the gaming licenses (retained by the operator) and possibly increase tolerance for higher leverage. Tepid Domestic Growth Prospects: 2014 casino openings in Ohio, Baltimore and possibly Lake Charles, LA will grow but also cannibalize their respective markets. Same-store growth will continue to be soft, although we project regional markets to fare better relative to 2013 as the effects from the sequester and the payroll tax holiday rollback will anniversary. Operators with exposure to the Las Vegas Strip and Macau will continue to benefit. We project 3% gaming revenue growth for the Las Vegas Strip (5% RevPAR growth) and 12% for Macau. Sector Outlook Greater Interest Rate Sensitivity: Many gaming companies used term loans to refinance STABLE fixed-rate notes or execute M&As.

  • The Naming of Gaming
    The Naming of Gaming Pauliina Raento Academy of Finland and William A. Douglass University of Nevada, Reno The naming of casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada, is an essential ingredient in the design of the city's entertainment landscape. More than 300 names have been used in the naming of gaming in Las Vegas since 1955. They occur in seven dominant patterns: 1) luck and good fortune, 2) wealth and opulence, 3) action, adventure, excitement and fantasy, 4) geography, 5) a certain moment, era, or season, 6) intimacy and informal- ity, and 7) "power words" commonly used in the naming of businesses. The categories are described and analyzed from the perspective of the evolution of Las Vegas. Regional variations between the Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, and suburban Las Vegas are also discussed. The names provide a powerful means of evoking senses of place, images, and identities for the casinos. They underscore the interpretative subjectivity and plurality of the relationship between people and commercial urban environments. Introduction We name people, things, and places to distinguish them from one another and to give them character. Often the names are commemorative and draw upon features (usually positive) of individuals and places. Buildings, streets and towns are named after other familiar places, historical events, and distinguished persons who have played a notable role in the shared past. As an example of the latter, over one quarter of the roughly 3,000 counties in the United States are named patriotically, most often commemorating a political figure (Zelinsky 1983, 6). Names of streets and buildings in capital cities and other centers of importance have special prestige.

  • Pittsburgh Casino Bidders Promise New Jobs, but Skeptics Remain
    Pittsburgh casino bidders promise new jobs, but skeptics remain Pittsburgh (AP) – The three groups vying for the Pittsburgh slot machine license promise the casino will create scores of new jobs, but some experts caution against putting much stock in the wildly varying estimates. Three competitors – Cleveland developer Forest City Enterprises, Isle of Capri Casinos Inc., and Detroit businessman Don Barden’s PITG Gaming – are in the running for the license. Forest City projects its Harrah’s casino could generate nearly 4,000 direct jobs; Isle of Capri estimates its proposed casino in the city’s Hill District will create 979 jobs; and PITG Gaming says its North Shore casino will bring in 1,500 jobs. They also project several thousand spin-off jobs. Some experts, however, remain skeptical. „Those figures can be very, very bogus,“ professor Robert Goodman of Hampshire College in Amherst, Mass. Goodman, who has studied the impact of casinos on local economies, told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that for every spin-off job a casino creates in a market such as Pittsburgh, another is lost as gamblers choose how they spend their money. „There’s no additional money coming in,“ Goodman said. „You’re just playing with the same money.“ Sebastian Sinclair, president of Christiansen Capital Advisors, said his group’s studies show that casinos do generate jobs. The Innovation Group consultant Steve Rittvo, who did the Isle of Capri study, said his number was „based on what we perceive will be in place.“ Critics doubt the job numbers because, unlike casinos in, say, Atlantic City, N.J., Pittsburgh will not have table games.
